Copra Samples on Show in Papua

From Our Own Correspondent

Pt. Moresby, March 12.

SAMPLES of copra from various parts of the world have been forwarded by the London Copra Association to the Hon.

Arthur Jewell (unofficial member of both the Executive and Legislative Councils of Papua) for the inspection of planters in the Territory.

These samples are on view at the pre mises of Burns, Philp and Co. at Port Moresby and Samarai, where they will be kept for some little time to enable all those interested to inspect them.

Mr. Jewell’s action in obtaining these samples has been much appreciated by those interested in copra production.
